Suppose that Gaussian elimination can be done on this matrix without pivoting. It results in an LU decomposition of $A$, i.e. $A=LU$. Can the elements on the main diagonal of U be zero? If not, why?

If the diagonal entries of $U$ are zero, the matrix $A = LU$ will be singular, and so the matrix equation $Ax = LUx = b$ is not guaranteed to be solvable.
